The following are proposals for WA resolutions. Any WA member nation
with at least two endorsements can
make a proposal, but it will only become a resolution (to be voted on by
the entire WA) if it is approved by at least
6% of WA Regional Delegates.

As the WA currently has 1,764
Regional Delegates, a proposal needs
106
approvals to achieve quorum.

Voting in countries can be very un-democratic due to high amounts of gerrymandering and general corruptness. The following terms will regulate this democratic procedure.

NOTING that democracy is a core part of the World Assembly.BELIEVING that all countries should have a democratic system.FURTHER BELIEVING that democracy should be administered in a fair system.

HEREBY:DEFINES (for purpose of resolution) 'First Past The Post' as: 'A system of democracy that inaccurately gives the person with the most votes, the seat that is being contested' (Example: If 3 candidates got 20%. One got 19% and a fifth got 21% giving them the win, Therefore allowing minority to rule when majority disagree.)

FURTHER DEFINES (for purpose of resolution) 'Singe Transferable Vote' as: 'A system of voting that allows the country to be divided into voting areas and for voters to number their candidates in order of favor, A quota being established and any excess votes going towards the number 2 choice candidate, If no candidates have reached the quota the candidate with fewest votes is eliminated and the votes are transferred to the 2nd choice candidate. This continues until all seats are filled' (Note: A quota is calculated by dividing the number of votes by the number of seats available.')

FURTHER DEFINES (for purpose of resolution) 'Gerrymandering' as: 'A practice where the individual, who is responsible for drawing up the electoral boundaries (areas), bunches supporters of parties in areas to give the party more candidates from more areas , And therefore a majority in parliament.' (Note: this can give parties a majority in parliament even though they might have a minority amount of supporters)

PROHIBITS nations to use any system such as 'First Past The Post' that is not as democratic as possible.

REQUIRES all nations that are a member of the World Assembly to use a single transferable voting system.

MANDATES every nation that is switching to this system, to select a non-biased independent third party to define the voting areas and fairly bunch voters into areas.

LIMITS the amount of time that a country can take to switch to this new 'STV' system to 1 year maximum. (Within the approval of this resolution or one's entry into the World Assembly)

PROHIBITS the practice of gerrymandering and all other corrupt practices.

We proposing this are aware that it will be controversial to overturn an anti-pirating bill from many years ago. However, we find this to be an important measure to take.

1) The idea of piracy in the resolution is vague, giving way to the idea that anyone could be designated by a WA member. This has set a basis for citizens to be prosecuted as if they are pirates.

2) The resolution invades on the freedom of member nations. If a nation wants to go against this action, such as by working with pirates for whatever reason, it is no business of the World Assembly and its members. Instead, this is the business of the nation itself.

3) No nation should be forced to increase its policing budget for no real reason. Think of how many taxes could go away if we simply repealed this measure.

4) There is no reason to believe repealing this would lead to an increase in piracy.

Countries that do "Opress their people for this have better healthcare and longer lives. I propose that the governments should still be allowed to as it is a right.If you vote for this it will help people living only into their 40s and dying from diseases that can be controlled. We have to smash the epidemics before they hit us.
